Chapter 204 The Goods Sent Away
Chapter 204 The Goods Sent Away
“I was saying that Xiao Ran and Luo San Niang’s relationship seems to have improved a lot recently. Xiao Ran has stopped tormenting Luo San Niang and is treating me the same as before.”
Lu Lingyue's tone carried a hint of complaint, while Zhou Yurong looked weary and put his arm around Lu Lingyue's shoulder.
"Then you could ask her for advice. If you can get along well with Xiao Ran right now, it won't be a bad thing for you."
She was curious to know what those two were up to, but since Luo San Niang was avoiding her, it was difficult to find out anything.
Zhou Yurong said a few words, he really didn't want to touch Xiao Ran for the time being, it wasn't the right time yet, he still needed Xiao Ran to handle his matters.
"Just listen to me. Don't let things get too tense with Xiao Ran. I know what you're saying, but now is not the time to do those things."
Sensing the warning implied in Zhou Yurong's tone, Lu Lingyue did not give up her idea; instead, it intensified.
Pei Du rushed over to Shen Hanyu's side, "Zhou Yurong sent a batch of goods to Luofeng City, which may be a breakthrough point."
Shen Hanyu frowned. She remembered that Luo Sanniang had said that those things were taken from the private treasury.
"The Guangning Marquis's mansion has a private warehouse, and it seems that no one but Zhou Yurong can enter it. The latest batch of goods was transported out of the private warehouse by Zhou Yurong's people."
Pei Du thought for a moment and said, "I'll have someone keep an eye on things and try to figure out what's inside. They're definitely heading towards Luofeng City. I've already sent people there, so there shouldn't be any problems."
If we can find out this time that there's something shady going on inside, Zhou Yurong will be finished.
"They've been on this path for so many years, it won't be easy to find out. Let's take it slow and not give ourselves away."
Let's hope that by the time they find out what Zhou Yurong did, they haven't uncovered it themselves, but instead, Zhou Yurong has discovered their activities.
Pei Du understood. "I will tell them to be careful, but this may be their only chance."
With such a great opportunity in front of her, Shen Hanyu was certainly tempted, but the more this was the case, the calmer she became.
She still has Luo Sanniang as a trump card, and if Luo Sanniang is used well, it can have a miraculous effect.
"It's alright. Luo Sanniang, whom Zhou Yurong recently took into her household, is my person. There's no rush for now."
Shen Hanyu took a deep breath. She not only had to deal with Zhou Yurong, but also Xiao Ran, and Lu Lingyue as well, who had done a lot of evil.
Upon hearing this news, Pei Du was no longer as anxious as before.
"Then I'll do whatever you say."
Zhou Yurong kept a close eye on the goods being sent away. There were a lot of them, and he was sending them to Luofeng City under Xiao Ran's name.
After handing the items over to those people, he didn't follow them. He had walked that road so many times that nothing should happen, but Zhou Yurong had been feeling uneasy lately.
"What's wrong with Zhou Lang?"
Luo San Niang poured a cup of tea. Although Zhou Yu Rong knew that her relationship with Xiao Ran had improved, she still had to come over to her to make a show of it.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little tired from being busy."
Luo Sanniang massaged Zhou Yurong's temples. She was genuinely curious as to why Zhou Yurong was so devoted to Lu Lingyue. Perhaps knowing more about her would be helpful.
Thinking this through, Luo San Niang decided to ask Shen Han Yu to help her investigate.
"How come you and Xiao Ran are so close?" Zhou Yurong suddenly asked. "She's not exactly a magnanimous person."
Luo San Niang twitched the corners of her lips; this was asking on behalf of Lu Lingyue.
“I have a tragic past and have always had to be mindful of others’ moods since I was a child. My mistress saw that I posed no threat and was obedient, so she gradually stopped targeting me.”
Zhou Yurong opened her eyes. Luo Sanniang was indeed obedient, but that made sense. Xiao Ran liked obedient and easy-to-control people, and she had never given up on controlling everything about him.
“Yue’er isn’t as flexible as you are. She’s stubborn. I know you two don’t get along, but try to talk to her when you have time.”
Luo San Niang agreed in a low voice. Although she agreed, she didn't want to see Lu Lingyue alone right now. Lu Lingyue wanted to kill her, and she wasn't stupid.
Let Xiao Ran handle this matter. After learning that the two were plotting to frame her, Xiao Ran didn't give them a friendly look.
After calming Zhou Yurong down, Luo Sanniang looked at Zhou Yurong's face and told her maid to deliver a message to Shen Hanyu.
Knowing that Luo San Niang wanted to ask Zhou Yu Rong how she fell in love with Lu Ling Yue, Luo San Niang had indeed asked the right person.
During the years that Shen Hanyu suffered in the Guangning Marquis's mansion, she also found out the truth about this matter.
Luo San Niang quickly received a reply. After watching the whole process, she destroyed the items.
"What a cliché plot."
It was simply that Lu Lingyue had the advantage of timing and location, and also happened to save Zhou Yurong once.
But people's hearts are fickle, and Luo San Niang understands this principle well. Unfortunately for her, she knows a little about manipulating people's hearts.
Having figured out the whole story, Luo San Niang felt that her life wasn't so easily taken away after all.
Luo San Niang had not inquired about the private treasury from Xiao Ran, and she was unsure whether Xiao Ran knew about it.
Pei Du kept his eyes on the shipment that had been sent away when Jin Chui ran in: "Young Master, those goods have now arrived at a place far from Chang'an, and the management there is lax. If we make a move, we might not have a chance. Why don't we find some people to take action now?"
Now they are just waiting for Pei Du's order to intercept the shipment.
"Take action, intercept it directly."
Pei Du had planned to make his move there from the beginning; this was an opportunity for Shen Hanyu, and he had to seize it.
He informed Shen Hanyu, and then ordered his men to take action.
The people transporting the goods stopped to rest; by then it was already dark.
Shen Hanyu was off today. After reading through the books, she began to wait for news from the other side.
What is Zhou Yurong doing today?
"I went out for drinks."
Miao Cui glanced outside. The weather in Chang'an wasn't great today. She hoped things would go more smoothly over there.
Shen Hanyu looked at the clear tea in the teacup, wondering if this time Zhou Yurong would receive the appropriate punishment.
When those men were at their most exhausted, they broke into the warehouse where the goods were stored and knocked out the guards.
The people who came to intercept the goods were all clean, and they didn't show their faces; they were only dressed in black.
"Move quickly."
Once inside the warehouse, the group divided the tasks clearly and quickly carried the goods away.
However, because the box was so big, it inevitably made some noise, and the people inside rushed over when they heard the commotion.
Seeing that there were only two left in the warehouse, and since they couldn't take any more with them right now, they had no choice but to leave.
"They took all three boxes with them."
When the deliveryman arrived at the warehouse, he felt like the sky had fallen. Not only could he not deliver the goods, but he also had a hard time explaining things to Zhou Yurong.
"Talk to the Earl of Guangning first and ask him what to do."
They couldn't make the decision themselves, so they could only ask Zhou Yurong for a solution.
Once the people who had taken the goods reached a safe place, they opened the boxes and found some porcelain.
